i will have to keep that in mind appox how many miles did you put on your DRs before they were gone? as far as the car catching all the cracks in the road isnt to much of a big deal got used to it after i switched to 255s on my 18s just reviewing my options before a costly purchase and what kind of tire would your recommend?

W body ... yep, no drag bags for you. We are stuck with weight transfer unless at the track where blockers and cable mods come into place.

I tossed on some Bridgestone RE960AS Pole Positions last week. So far I am very impressed. Haven't yet found the breaking point on corners and I've pushed pretty hard.
